Olbermann Responds To Ailes

Keith Olbermann responds to Roger Ailes' remarks:

"'Over the line?' Where was Roger when O'Reilly defended the Nazi SS stormtroopers from Malmedy in World War II? The SS shot 84 American POW's there in 1944, and three different times in the last year, Bill has called those dead Americans war criminals. I guess there is no line at Fox News."

1. I love this "fued."
It draws more attention to Keith, bringing him more viewers, and it draws attention to Faux's insane tactics.

Win-win situation.

2. There's no news at FOX News either. KO is making those propagandists
sweat.

Bravo.

7. for once I have to disagree with KO
There is a line at Fox. It is their bottom line. All they've ever cared about is making money. Fox has found out that their bottom line increases when they pander to the simpletons.

8. If Keith was as insignificant and "over the line" as Fox/O'Reilly make him
out to be, they wouldn't address him at all, just pretend like he didn't exist.

They wouldn't engage in a feud with him.
